It’s been another busy week for Netflix, who’ve added a lot of fresh original content to see in February. As usual, the platform have exclusive pictures and new and returning series, as well as other family and documentary programs to keep subscribers busy. Highlights from the last several days include the Sam Levinson-directed Malcolm & Marie, Space Sweepers, drama Firefly Lane, and the third season of The Sinner. What, then, was released to the online giant from February 1st to the 7th?
First up, Malcolm & Marie stars Zendaya and John David Washington as a couple discussing their relationship history in a drama that’s already receiving good notices for its strong performances. Director and writer Levinson is known for HBO’s Euphoria, while Malcolm & Marie is also notable for being shot in lockdown under restricted circumstances. By contrast, Firefly Lane is a show following Katherine Heigl and Sarah Chalke’s character’s friendship over 30 years, and is based on Kristin Hannah’s 2008 novel of the same name.
Also new to Netflix is the intriguingly-titled Polish movie All My Friends Are Dead, and Spanish thriller Black Beach. For sci-fi fans, the Korean blockbuster Space Sweepers is already doing well on the service, which has been giving it plenty of promotion over the last few days, while other notable titles include the documentary Strip Down, Rise Up about the transformative power of pole dancing, and a second season of Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready.
On the licensed content front, meanwhile, The Sinner: Jamie represents the third run of the popular USA Network show to get a renewed lease of life on Netflix, while the 1st brought a few great highlights as well, including Inception, Shutter Island and more.
